Lyrics

Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia!

Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!

​

Love’s redeeming work is done, Alleluia!

Fought the fight the battle won, Alleluia!

Death in vain forbids him rise, Alleluia!

Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia!

​

Hearts are strong, and voices sing, Alleluia!

Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!

As he died his truth to save, Alleluia!

Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

​

Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!

Living out the words he said, Alleluia!

Made like him, like him we rise, Alleluia!

Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!
